The Kaghan Memorial Trust (KMT) is a non-profit Charitable Trust registered in Islamabad, Pakistan in January 2006 in the aftermath of the earthquake.  The sole immediate objective of the Trust is to establish the Kaghan Memorial School in the Kaghan Valley of Northern Pakistan that offers a first-class education to children of this severely hit region.  This School is dedicated to the memory of the thousands of children who lost their lives to the earthquake.

KMT was initially established by three friends, all members of civil society, who wanted to play their part in helping with the long term rehabilitation of the Kaghan Valley. Since its inception, other concerned members of society wanting to support the cause of the Trust have been co-opted as Trustees. Trustees are selected based on their commitment and on their capacity to help strengthen the Trust. The KMT board can have a maximum of nine Trustees at any point in time. Details of the Trust’s charter and objectives can be obtained from the Trust Deed that is available on this website.
